First published in the 1940s, Paul Hindemith’s extraordinary textbooks continue to be unparalleled in their field. Unlike many music textbooks authored by academic musicians, these were crafted by a virtuoso who was proficient in every instrument of the orchestra, capable of composing engaging pieces for virtually any ensemble, and renowned as one of the most inspiring teachers of his era. As such, it’s no surprise that, nearly four decades later, these books remain vital reads for both students and professional musicians alike.
